Ingredients
¾ cup raisins3 ¾ cup all purpose flour¼ cup brown sugar1 ½ tbsp baking powder½ tsp baking soda½ tsp salt2 cups low-fat plain yogurt1 egg¼ cup granulated sugar1 tsp cinnamon2 tbsp butter
Preheat the oven to 375F. Grease two large cookie sheets.
Measure the raisins into a bowl and pour boiling water over to cover. Let soak 30 minutes.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the yogurt and the egg.
Pour the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture and stir well until everything is blended.
Drain the raisins and add to the dough, mixing well – the dough will be quite soft and sticky.
Sprinkle some additional flour onto work surface and turn the dough out.
Knead the dough about 5 minutes, and cut into 12 equal pieces.
Working with one lump of dough at a time, roll it out into an even rope about ½ inch thick. Twist it into a pretzel and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining lumps of dough.
Stir together the cinnamon and sugar and melt the butter in a small dish.
Brush each pretzel with some butter, then sprinkle evenly with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned on top.
